but no so much when you think that the goal is not so much to actually solve the problem but just to find someone that can be blamed for it on the domestic political front.
Wind is not Serious, you should know by now. And enerrgy efficiency is so wimpy and hippy-worthy. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
I wonder why? Incompetence, evil intent, personal gain, conspiracy or what?
I must say incompetence is as usual a much underestimated force. This is also a happy thought because it means we can change things for the better. Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.
If there would be competent politicians, who would e.g. like to help Big Oil, then it is reasonable, that they will shift policies just in time. Not too early, that profits are lost, but as well not too late. Incompetence allows to run into the abyss, unaware until it is too late. Gemach, gemach
I agree that incompetence is often underestimated. But how does this mean it can be changed more easily?
